The Choice 2&3
The Choice offers a compassionate look into the deeply personal and often untold experiences of people navigating abortion and reproductive decisions. Leigh and Dan, a married couple who never planned to have children, face an unplanned pregnancy with honesty and vulnerability. Their story reveals the emotional intricacies of shared decision-making and offers a rare insight into the male partner’s role in the process. Makayla, a young woman from San Antonio, shares her journey through two abortions - one in a clinic, one self-managed - confronting fear, resilience, and self-determination. Her story sheds light on the realities of medical abortion and the strength it takes to reclaim agency over one’s own body. Together, these stories illuminate the diversity of lived experiences while underscoring a universal truth: reproductive freedom is not just a political issue, but a profoundly human one.
